It's my secret, secret ingredient! I live near the Canadian border and buy this in Canada but you can get it on Amazon too.

Its disgusting to eat as a hot cereal all by its sell (think eating hot bird seed) but it's an awesome additive to bread and it's what makes our oatmeal famous here at camp. (When I am making 8 cups of oats I add 1/4 cup of Red River to it, along with butter, milk and vanilla extract...another secret recipe!)
 
Hello! I was excited when I saw this

I am currently in the process of making oatmeal bread as I type. I will share my recipe for those who are interested:

Oatmeal yeast bread.

1 package of yeast
1 tbsp + 3tbsp of honey
1 cup of warm water + 2cups of water
1/4 cup of melted butter or coconut oil
2 tsp of salt
4 cups of flour + 3 cups of flour + flour for kneading

Proof the yeast. Combine one cup of warm with one tbsp of honey. Pour over yeast, stir one. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

Make the sponge. Combine melted butter or coconut oil, salt, 2 cups of water, 3 tbsp of honey, and yeast water. Mix. Add 4 cups of flour, add your heaviest flour first. I personally use 2 cups of oatmeal flour and 2 cups of all purpose flour. Stir until its all mixed in real good. Add remaining 3 cups of flour on top. Cover and let sit in a warm place for one hour.

Knead dough. Stir in remaining flour. Turn out on a flored surface. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes. Set in a greased bowl and cover for 40 minutes.

Make loves. Remove from bowl on to floured surface. Cut into two equal halves. Roll flat with rolling pin. Roll up the dough like your making cinnamon rolls. Press the air out of the ends and fold under. Set in greased bread pans and let sit in warm area forr 40 minutes.

Bake at 350 for 30 to 40 minutes.


This is a picture of my oatmeal bread before they went in the oven

Interesting addition to your bread recipe! Those were some very attractive loaves

Thank you its nice to be in the presence of people who appreciate homemade bread. I just love what im seeing on here. I will be trying out some of these recipes! They look wonderful!

I forgot to mention...there's an index to the recipes on the 1st page of the thread, that makes it a lot easier to find something you might want to try.

I love this thread. Someone is always trying something new or sharing the good, the bad and the ugly (been there, done that, lol), and I've learned a lot with all the tips that have been shared. Just make yourself at home and enjoy!
 
Well a little late but I just baked our Christmas ham :). My sister Ended up in Hospital over xmas so her half ham ended up in my freezer and now she can't eat any processed meat so it's no good to her. So Finally got round to baking it! I did it from frozen but it's already smoked so doesn't really need any baking to eat so think it won't matter if it didn't get to correct temp in the middle. Cooked it for two hours on low to defrost then baked as normal.

Now I'm looking for some salads to put with it and was surprised to find not a single one in the index! Do you guys not do salad sides much?

It's probably because the thread is directed at home baking more than all recipes?

Anyway, I like caesar salad (without bacon, I don't like bacon) or my favourite is salad nicoise, yum

Salads? dunno about those

The ham would be good mixed with some chicken, mushrooms, onions, garlic and double cream (maybe some white wine and fennel seeds) - either on pasta or in a pie - gotta love pies!
